Suzanne Vega - Institution Green lyrics

Your rating:

Institution green
 The walls are cracked and dim
 And we are standing in a line
 Waiting for our faces to be seen

 Institution green
 Watch the floor and cound the hours
 None will meet my eyes
 Private people in this public place

 I wonder if they'll take a look
 Find my name inside that book
 Lose me on the printed page
 Where to point the aimless rage

 I cast my vote upon this earth
 Take my place for what it's worth
 Hunger for a pain of etes
 To notice and to regognize

 Institution green
 A woman stands behind a table
 She will call my name
 After that I'll be admitted in

 I wonder if she'll take a look
 Find my name inside that book
 Lose me on the printed page
 Where to point the aimless rage

 I cast my vote upon this earth
 Take my place for what it's worth
 Hunger for a pain of etes
 To notice and to regognize

 Institution green
 Teach me how to pull the lever
 Push the curtain closed
 Take what's needed then just
 Let me go
